Abstract
|
|
|
|
As the incidence of total elbow arthroplasty has increased, revisions of the procedure also increase including reconstruction of bony defects caused by bone destruction. Reconstruction techniques depend on location and severity of the bony defect, and allografts are useful in cases of substantial bone loss. However, this procedure is technically difficult and has a high complication rate. Here, we describe a novel autogenous bone graft technique using tricortical iliac bone for reconstruction of a distal bone loss in a revisional total elbow arthroplasty, providing an additional method to restore bone stock.
